[edit] Other networks shows

Shouldn't the shows not made for Nickelodeon but purchased as reruns be in a different list (Same page, but different section)?--Mikintosh 05:36, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Powerhouse

Does anyone recall a Nick program from the 1980s called "Power House"? To the best of my memory it was about a group of kids who either worked or lived in a community center and every episode would solve mysteries or help people in need.--Husnock 04:47, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Roundhouse?

I very vaguely remember a sketch comedy show on Nickelodeon from the early 90s that was performed in a warehouse. The host of the show was a bald man in a wheelchair; the only sketch I remember was "Juicy Poot", a parody of the Juicy Fruit "It's gonna move ya" ads. Is this "The Roundhouse"?--Ian the Gecko 08:24, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I remember this show as well, the guy wasn't in a wheel chair, just in a motorized recliner. I also remember that they would end every show by saying "Repriese the theme and roll the credits!" Sometimes coming up with interesting ways of getting to it. ---DarthObvious

[edit] U2U / You 2 U?

I clearly remember there being a show titled You2You, U2U, or some variant of it. I don't recall exactly what it was or how long it lasted, but it was some kind of a varitey show and gameshow mixed into one in a way.

Info about the show is on this page, the show is listed as "U2U"
There was a show called "U2U" that had kids send in their drawings and ideas, so that they could be placed on TV."

[edit] Mario and Legend of Zelda

As a fan of both the Mario and Zelda cartoons, and Nickelodeon, I do not remember Nickelodeon ever airing them. I think the mostly wound up on the Family Channel and TBS after thier initial runs. Either proove they were on, or delte them.--DarthObvious

[edit] Show in a mall

I remember some show taking place in a shopping mall at night. It was live-action, and there was one character who was either a robot or something else that couldn't move periodically. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.30.56.51 (talk) 21:25, 23 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Removal of Cartoons

Does anyone remeber my recent edit to this article? It was because of all the times I watched Nickelodeon, I never saw The X's, Mr. Meaty, As Told By Ginger, Rugrats, and All Grown Up. Last time I saw them, it was like back in 2005 or 2006. Does anyone know if these shows still air in the mornings? Because if they don't, they should be moved to Former Shows Superjustinbros. 18:00, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Some of the shows mentioned by the above poster are now not mentioned in the article at all, which isn't good as the were aired on Nickelodeon 209.244.188.142 00:41, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ME:TV?

Has anyone got any news about that block, has it been cancelled? --Wikialexdx 02:11, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

ITS OFFICALLY BEEN CANCELLED.--AAP52 16:35, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

well, ok, i can get my hopes down now. is there a website that has that info anyway? --Wikialexdx (talk) 03:09, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Add Nudnik?

According to Nudnik this cartoon was broadcast on Nick. Can anyone verify this claim? If yes, please add. DutchTreat 22:54, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article reorganization

Why was the acticle moved to alphabetical order?WWEFAN99 (talk) 10:42, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

I think the article was re-organized in this way for various reasons:
  • 1. To prevent inaccuracies in whether a program is currently or formerly broadcast
  • 2. To prevent any inaccuracies in air dates
  • 3. To de-clutter the article, as airdates are found on each individual programs article
  • 4. Easier navigation to see all programming
  • 5. To prevent bias of any kind

IT'S Better with the air date version and many people think the same!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarge100 (talk • contribs) 03:35, 25 May 2008

I agree with the no-airdates version for the same reason. The airdates version is a little too long. RJaguar3 | u | t 15:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Would it help to use a sortable table? TH1RT3EN talk ♦ contribs 17:22, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I like the air date version better AND iam not alone look at the history page. Lets have both on the same page or do a new page people can choose witch version--Sarge100 (talk) 18:52, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Poll

So, from what I can see, there are three options:

  1. Airdates version
  2. Alphabetized version
  3. Sortable table version

If you are in favor of one of these options, please put a comment below this statement. Remember that Wikipedia works by consensus, not voting, so comments without explanation may be devalued or ignored. RJaguar3 | u | t 18:46, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Sortable table version, as it allows users to select the layout. However, it may be difficult to put together. RJaguar3 | u | t 18:46, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Alphabetized version, I do like the air date version but it's completely unsourced and some dates may be completely false. --Caldorwards4 (talk) 23:07, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Alphabetized version, no question, for my reasons stated above. 53180 (talk) 00:18, 29 May 2008 (UTC)53180.
  • Air date version some dates may be wrong but not many.The main thing i like with the air date version is that is very detailed like Currently broadcast, future programs, reruns, animated, Formerly broadcast, Live action and blocks. Its easier to find programs with the Airdate version and the layout.--Sarge100 (talk) 13:37, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
I agree with you when you say some dates may be wrong,, that should be enough to end this discussion. It is also easy, and more efficient to find programs that you are looking for by searching the title in alphabetical order. What about the scenario when you expect to easily find a program title but it's not in the currently broadcast section as you expected? 53180 (talk) 01:07, 2 June 2008 (UTC)53180.
  • Alphabetized version, as even the proponent of using the dates says some may be wrong. Lambertman (talk) 15:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Air date version, I think it's a better way to sort the page. Even if some of the dates are inaccurate, it still shows which programs were broadcast in the past, and which are being broadcast in the present. The alphabetical version does not give any of that information. Slyfence (talk) 15:56, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
The title of this article does not promise or even suggest that it will tell you when programs broadcast. Programs can air for short periods of time in which it is expected that the program name be moved from section to section? Programming air dates can be found on each individual programs article. 53180 (talk) 01:07, 2 June 2008 (UTC)53180.
  • Air date version, the article was fine the way it was. Plus, with the alphabetized version, it's more confusing as it does not sort current programs from former ones. At least bold the programs that are currently airing, that's an idea. If this is going to be going to be an alphabetized list, then might as well turn it into a category. --SpongeSebastian (talk) 02:30, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
There is nothing confusing about an alphabetized list. Every program has a place and it is always in its place. The problem with a "categorized" list of any kind for this article would create confusion over what is a "former" or "current" program, which sorting into those kind of categories is irrelevant to this list. Having any bold titles would still keep the problem of which get bolded and which do not, as not all programs are permanently "former" or "current" as you suggest. 53180 (talk) 02:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)53180.
